Abstract

"Traditional thinking about investment has been thrown on its head in the wake of the financial crisis. Many investors no longer accept the idea that diversification reduces risk and the stock market provides the best long-term returns. With global markets increasingly interlinked, markets tend to move in concert, reducing the benefits of diversification. And given the gravity of today's economic problems, many question whether the stock market will soon continue its inexorable march higher. In Options in Volatile Markets, Lehman and McMillan provide investors with strategies to generate double-digit returns and to protect against market crashes. The new edition discusses the changing investment environment; explains how to use options with ETFs; and shows how build "catastrophic" protection into a portfolio. While the core strategy remains covered call writing - selling a call option on a stock the investor already owns - the authors discuss other strategies to capitalize on high-flying stocks. Most importantly, for investors looking for high returns but fearful that the market might crash, the authors discuss low-cost options strategies that effectively provide insurance for a portfolio"--

Abstract

"Trading VIX Derivatives will be a comprehensive book covering all aspects of the Chicago Board Options Exchange stock market volatility index. The book will explain the mechanics and strategies associated with trading VIX options, futures, exchange trading notes and options on exchange traded notes. Known as the "fear index" the VIX provides a snapshot of expectations about future stock market volatility and generally moves inversely to the overall stock market. As such, many market participants look at the VIX to help understand market sentiment and predict turning points. With a slew of VIX index trading products now available, there are a variety of strategies traders use to speculate outright on the direction of market volatility or to use the products in conjunction with other instruments to create spread trades or hedge their overall risk. A top instructor at the CBOE's Options Institute, the author will reflect the wide range of uses associated with the VIX and will make the book useful to both new traders and seasoned professionals"--
